information, see the feature interface-vlan command.
The switch applies ACLs to inbound traffic only. The switch checks inbound packets against the rules in
the ACL. If the first matching rule permits the packet, the switch continues to process the packet. If the
first matching rule denies the packet, the switch drops the packet and returns an ICMP host-unreachable
message.
If you delete the specified ACL from the device without removing the ACL from an interface, the deleted
ACL does not affect traffic on the interface.
